The cathode ray oscilloscope (CRO) provides a visual presentation of any
waveform applied to the input terminal. The oscilloscope consists of the
following major subsystems.
• Cathode ray tube (CRT)
• Vertical amplifier
• Horizontal amplifier
• Sweep Generator
• Trigger circuit
• Associated power supply
It can be employed to measure quantities such as peak voltage, frequency,
phase difference, pulse width, delay time, rise time, and fall time.

CATHODE RAY TUBE:
The CRT is the heart of the CRO providing visual display of an input signal
waveform. A CRT contains four basic parts:
• An electron gun to provide a stream of electrons.
• Focusing and accelerating elements to produce a well define beam of
electrons.
• Horizontal and vertical deflecting plates to control the path of the
electron beam.
• An evacuated glass envelope with a phosphorescent which glows visibly
when struck by electron beam.
A Cathode containing an oxide coating is heated indirectly by a filament resulting
in the release of electrons from the cathode surface. The control grid which has a
negative potential, controls the electron flow from the cathode and thus control the
number of electron directed to the screen. Once the electron passes the control grid,
they are focused into a tight beam and accelerated to a higher velocity by focusing and
accelerating anodes. The high velocity and well defined electron beam then passed
through two sets of deflection plates.
The First set of plates is oriented to deflect the electron beam vertically. The angle
of the vertical deflection is determined by the voltage polarity applied to the deflection
plates. The electron beam is also being deflected horizontally by a voltage applied to
the horizontal deflection plates. The tube sensitivity to deflecting voltages can be
expressed in two ways that are deflection factor and deflection sensitivity.
The deflected beam is then further accelerated by very high voltages applied to the
tube with the beam finally striking a phosphorescent material on the inside face of the
tube. The phosphor glows when struck by the energetic electrons.
CONTROL GRID:
Regulates the number of electrons that reach the anode and hence the
brightness of the spot on the screen.
FOCUSING ANODE:
Ensures that electrons leaving the cathode in slightly different directions are
focused down to a narrow beam and all arrive at the same spot on the screen.
ELECTOR GUN:
Cathode, control grid, focusing anode, and accelerating anode.
DEFLECTING PLATES:
Electric fields between the first pair of plates deflect the electrons horizontally
and an electric field between the second pair deflects them vertically. If no deflecting
fields are present, the electrons travel in a straight line from the hole in the
accelerating anode to the center of the screen, where they produce a bright spot. In
general purpose oscilloscope, amplifier circuits are needed to increase the input signal
to the voltage level required to operate the tube because the signals measured using
CRO are typically small. There are amplifier sections for both vertical and horizontal
deflection of the beam.
VERTICAL AMPLIFIER:
Amplify the signal at its input prior to the signal being applied to the vertical
deflection plates.
HORIZONTAL AMPLIFIER:
Amplify the signal at its input prior to the signal being applied to the horizontal
deflection plates.
SWEEP GENERATOR:
Develop a voltage at the horizontal deflection plate that increases linearly with
time.
OPERATION:
The four main parts of the oscilloscope CRT are designed to create and direct
an electron beam to a screen to form an image. The oscilloscope links to a circuit that
directly connects to the vertical deflection plates while the horizontal plates have
linearly increasing charge to form a plot of the circuit voltage over time. In an
operating cycle, the heater gives electrons in the cathode enough energy to escape.
The electrons are attracted to the accelerating anode and pulled through a control grid
that regulates the number of electrons in the beam, a focusing anode that controls the
width of the beam, and the accelerating anode itself. The vertical and horizontal
deflection plates create electric field that bend the beam of electrons. The electrons
finally hit the fluorescent screen which absorbs the energy from the electron beam and
emits it in the form of light to display an image at the end of the glass tube.
PRECAUTIONS:
1. Do not leave a ‘bright spot’ on the screen for any length of time.
2. Do not apply signals that exceed the scopes voltage rating.
3. Do not try make accurate measurements on signals whose frequency is outside
the scope’s frequency specifications.
4. Be aware that the scope’s input circuitry can cause loading effects on the
circuitry under test-use correct probe for the work.
PRODEDURE:
1. Measurement of Voltage Using CRO : A voltage can be measured by noting
the Y deflection produced by the voltage; using this deflection in conjunction with the
Y-gain setting, the voltage can be calculated as follows : V = ( no. of boxes in cm. ) x
( selected Volts/cm scale )
2 .Measurement of Current and Resistance Using a CRO: Using the general
method, a correctly calibrated CRO can be used in conjunction with a known value of
resistance R to determine the current I flowing through the resistor.
3 Measurement of Frequency Using a CRO: A simple method of determining
the frequency of a signal is to estimate its periodic time from the trace on the screen of
a CRT. However this method has limited accuracy, and should only be used where
other methods are not available. To calculate the frequency of the observed signal, one
has to measure the period, i.e. the time taken for 1 complete cycle, using the calibrated
sweep scale. The period could be calculated by T = (no. of squares in cm) x (selected
Time/cm scale) Once the period T is known, the frequency is given by f (Hz)=
1/T(sec)
4. Measurement of Phase: The calibrated time scales can be used to calculate
the phase shift between two sinusoidal signals of the same frequency. If a dual trace or
beam CRO is available to display the two signals simultaneously (one of the signals is
used for synchronization), both of the signals will appear in proper time perspective
and the amount of time difference between the waveforms can be measured. This, in
turn can be utilized to calculate the phase angle θ, between the two signals.
Referring to the fig below the phase shift can be calculated by the formula;
θ°=
MEASUREMENT OF PF:
The power factor is calculated by the formula
pf=VICOS θ.
VIVA QUESTIONS:
1. What is a CRO?
2. How can we measure the voltage using a CRO?
3. Explain the different parts of the CRO
4. Explain the operation of a CRO.
RESULT:
Thus the Analog and digital oscilloscopes were studied and measurement
of sinusoidal voltage, frequency and power factor was done.

RESPONSE OF RC ELECTRIC CIRCUIT

AIM:
To obtain the transient response of RL and RC circuits for dc input
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY:
Electrical devices are controlled by switches which are closed to connect supply to the
device, or opened in order to disconnect the supply to the device. The switching operation will
change the current and voltage in the device. The purely resistive devices will allow
instantaneous change in current and voltage. An inductive device will not allow sudden change
in current and capacitance device will not allow sudden change in voltage. Hence when
switching operation is performed in inductive and capacitive devices, the current & voltage in
device will take a certain time to change from pre switching value to steady state value after
switching. This phenomenon is known as transient.
The study of switching condition in the circuit is called transient analysis. The state of
the circuit from instant of switching to attainment of steady state is called transient state. The
time duration from the instant of switching till the steady state is called transient period. The
current & voltage of circuit elements during transient period is called transient response.

RLC CIRCUIT:
Consider a series RLC circuit as shown. The switch is in open state initially.
There is no charge on condenser and no voltage across it. At instant t=0, switch is
closed.
Immediately after closing a switch, the capacitor acts as a short circuit, so
current at the time of switching is high. The voltage across capacitor is zero at t= 0+ as
capacitor acts as a short circuit, and the current is maximum given by,
i = V/R Amps

MODEL CALCULATION:
This current is maximum at t=0+ which is charging current. As the capacitor starts
charging, the voltage across capacitor VC starts increasing and charging current starts
decreasing. After some time, when the capacitor charges to V volts, it achieves steady
state. In steady state it acts as an open circuit and current will be zero finally.
